ENRICHMENT OF SELF-HEALING MATERIAL AND ADVANCED COMPOSITE STRUCTURES (Pages : 28 - 32)

Self-healing material is taking an increase number of interest worldwide because of their autonomic healing properties. This unique material behavior is inspired by biological systems. In this study different approaches for self-healing materials are shown. Three conceptual approaches are available for self-healing: capsule-based healing systems, vascular healing systems, and intrinsic healing polymers. This article reviews about the self-healing process of composite material using microcapsule and hollow fiber. Influence of microcapsule content on tensile performance is also reviewed and found better for advanced composite structure.Download
